Heartfelt thanks to the safety personnel fighting these fires in the weather. Your dedication to our communities is very much noticed and appreciated. There were fires on the Cuesta Grade, Atascadero Chalk Mountain, San Miguel and the temperatures were 105′ or more without the fires. God bless you all and stay safe!
